Matheus Jonatha Bernardo dos Santos

2×2 · top 7.1% of 186,767 all-time · competing since August 2016 · 2016SANT49

Matheus Jonatha Bernardo dos Santos has been competing for 10 years. His best event is the 2×2: a personal-best single of 2.31, set at Dunas Open 2016, puts him in the top 7.1% of the 186,767 people who have ever been ranked in the event, and 228th in Brazil. Until February 2008, no official 2×2 solve in the world had been that fast. Across 5 competitions since August 2016, he has put 135 official solves on the record across four events. Solve to solve, his 3×3 times vary about 11% around a typical one, steadier than 90% of the 35,811 competitors with ten or more counted rounds. His 3×3 best has come down from 14.71 in August 2016 to 12.27, a 17% improvement. Matheus has entered five competitions, more competitions than 83% of everyone who has ever competed.

The story so far

Competitions

Reading this page: a single is one solve's time · an average is the middle three of five solves, best and worst discarded · a PB is a personal best · a DNF (did not finish) is an attempt with no valid result: a popped piece, an unsolved face, an over-limit memorisation · top X% compares against everyone ever ranked in that event, which is fairer than raw rank because event pools differ tenfold.
